I just sat in the new 2017 Kia Cadenza.

That was unbelievably nice. Way nicer than what you would imagine a Kia to be.

And it was the lowest trim level.

I’m impressed, sincerely impressed.

I sat in a Cadenza at an auto show last year - it was a fancier trim with some fancy (Nappa, maybe) leather package. Anyway - both my dad and I agreed that it was by far the nicest-feeling leather of any car we sat in that day. That includes every single luxury marque.

Nice, aren’t they? The Cadenza, Azera, Genesis, and K900 are all very nice cars, even nicer for the price.

For those curious, the Cadenza starts at 32K and here’s a picture of the interior MontegoMan was talking about:

Looks like other FWD based (Cadenza competitors) luxury vehicles might wanna watch their ass.

Thanks for adding in supplemental info for my post, I’m actually not allowed to talk about Kia much on here.

And for the record that’s a picture of the highest trim level, I see that one next week.

The one I was in today was the base model and I was still impressed. The above had Quilted Nappa Leather in it.

Ah okay, I just searched Cadenza interior and those initially looked like cloth seats to me so I figured it was the lowest trim.

Yeah the quilted is the super fancy leather.

17 Cadenza’s are not available with cloth seats.

Quilted leather makes me feel all fuzzy inside.
